Laurel Burch inspired Symmetrical CATS- MEow

First Graders loved learning about symmetry and were inspired by artist, Laurel Burch while creating their  unique cats.  Students worked with many geometric shapes and patterns!  As you can see, they even

named their CATS!

.

Second graders have been learning about directional lines, warm/cool colors, pentagons, triangles and hexagons! Can you find vertical lines, diagonal lines and horizontal lines in their spider webs? Each student got to choose between a triangle, pentagon and hexagon shape for their web, and paint either warm or cool colors. We read many books about spiders to help us with creating our own. There are many more spiders hanging up in the lobby at school!
